In view of increasing socio-economic and ecological challenges, Timo Achtelik sheds a critical light on the ongoing incremental optimization of existing innovations, which can lead to a state of “over-engineering”. As part of a multi-year action research...
Both Germany and the United Kingdom have economically vital cities and peripheral locations that contain historic industrial structures or districts. This prompts the question of how to manage historic industrial buildings, and how they can be preserved to maintain...
The German residential building sector plays a crucial role in achieving net greenhouse gas neutrality by 2045. However, current renovation rates remain insufficient to meet climate targets. To improve the efficiency of the sector’s transformation, transformation...
Users face many situations in which they have to disclose their data to others. In many cases, they are not properly informed about the usage of their data or the consequences of data disclosure. This book investigates how users can be supported by researching three...
Innovation and sustainability are the key factors in the development of a future-proof chassis. The symposium exceeded expectations and brought together leading experts in chassis technology from all over the world. The most impressive innovations included active...
In this Open-Access book, voltage source converters (VSCs) as key components of sustainable energy systems based on wind power plants, photovoltaic power plants, battery energy systems, electric vehicles and heat pumps are investigated.In the future, 100% inverter-based...
The aluminothermic (AT) welding process, also known as Thermit welding, is an essential process for joining and repairing rails due to its simplicity, robustness, portability and economic usage. This book presents a multi-fluid, multiphase numerical model to predict the...
Jonas Maier presents a method for designing decentralized, spatially structured E/E architectures. A coupled approach of package and wiring harness models is used for this purpose. Relevant data can be exchanged between the models by transferring the boundary...
The objective of this scientific work is to research, test and develop an approach and design a safety architecture for highly safe, available and autonomous systems with regard to functional safety using degradation concepts. A novel, safety-oriented 4oo6 sensor...
Sustainability, electromobility, and automation in the transport sector: These megatrends are having a major impact on the overall chassis system. How exactly was discussed at chassis.tech plus 2023. "The chassis system faces numerous challenges." - with...
This book comprises the proceedings of the conference “Circularity Days 2024”, which took place from May 15th-16th in Wolfsburg. The conference focused on key topics such as Design for Remanufacturing, Circular Production, and Sustainable Materials and...
This little book presents background information on the exhaust gas scandal, e.g. which pollutants are critical, how engine control units, exhaust gas recirculation and exhaust gas aftertreatment work, which driving cycles are used for testing, how manipulations on the...
Social robots have significantly advanced in capabilities and availability, gradually becoming part of everyday life. Their new interactive features are relevant to the struggling care sector. As Western societies age, the demand for care services rises, yet the...
This is a publication-based dissertation. The book examines the promotion of innovation in construction 4.0 through the CDR approach.This opens up a new scientific research field for digital breakthroughs. It raises awareness, explains and enables access to innovative...
Digital platforms hold significant economic value, enriching various industry sectors. While they are pivotal in driving value creation and capture, it is not solely their technological prowess that underpins their economic significance. Rather, their effectiveness lies...
Functional decline in older adults can lead to an increased need of assistance or even moving to a nursing home. Utilising home automation, power and wearable sensors, the system developed by the author continuously keeps track of the functional status of older adults...
This book presents the manufacture and development of products from a novel material formulation as a bio-based paper material using 3D printing for engineering purposes. The approach is to optimize the material behavior and the manufacturing process to achieve a high...
In the heart of big cities, a less obvious challenge exists right under our feet. The everyday activities of city life, like traffic, construction, and industrial work, do more than just create noise. They send vibrations through the ground, which can be problematic,...
